My Question(s) or Comments (or theories)


(After I acknowledge we got a punt off with 2 protectors)

“Coach, I’ve been an SU football fan since Ernie Davis was in our backfield. We’ve had 8 previous coaches during that time and they all lost games like that one. I recall Ben Schwartzwalder going out to play California in 1968 with a 10th ranked team to play 11th ranked Cal. We turned the ball over 9 times and the game ended 0-43, 7 minutes early because the Cal fans rushed the field after a Pick 6 and Ben agreed the game ought to end at that point. That team won its next game 47-0. I also remember the least time we were down 0-31 at halftime: it was the 1999 game at Virginia Tech. Unfortunately, the second half of that game by the same score for a total of 0-62. That team had been ranked #16. They lost 4 of their last 5 games. Those were our two winningest coaches, Ben and Paul Pasqualoni. Your team was down 0-31 and won the second half 13-10, a good sign.

How long does it take a team to get over a game like that, get it’s full confidence back and focus fully on its next opponent?”

For the twitch segment:

“We seem to lack balance. We have a hard time running the ball but pass it well. But our passes are mostly short or intermediate passes. Zeed Haynes was supposed to be our deep threat. So do we have anyone who could do for us what he was going to do? Can we protect the quarterback well enough to throw deep?”
